A community for women to find support and discuss living with ADHD.
How is it going? Do you have something exciting to share or maybe you need some support? This is the place for all your check-ins, on- and off-topic.
I’m okay, just mentally re-hashing my behaviour during a trip with work friends this past weekend. I tend to get pretty rambunctious in some situations and then feel bad or weird about it later… but what’s done is done hopefully I didn’t annoy anyone too badly
I can really relate. It’s often awkward when I’m convinced I came off terribly and people thought I was charming or vice versa
That hits home. I, too, wonder whether I was overly rambunctious often. Good word for it.
I feel fantastic right now - in the last week, I have hyper focussed for several days to help a dear friend prepare for a court date (the kind of task that has "important/interesting to me" and "urgent" written all over it), and due to our preparation, it went really well for her. And I am happy, relieved and quite proud of us - while also feeling completely trashed from overtaxing my physical ressources in the process.
Absolutely worth it, though. I will, however, now take a break of several days.
that's awesome, I'm sure she was really grateful to have you there helping her so much!
Yes, she is! I personally am just so glad I could help at all and not have her watch go through that ordeal by herself... and to have managed to make a significant difference for her, she says. That doesn't always happen when trying to help and support, and I am so happy that this time, it did :)
That's fantastic - I hope you got that well-deserved break!
